Schuette and Snyder wrote in the letter that the proposed casino was inconsistent with state law, federal law and the tribe's gaming compact with the state.

“For these reasons, we respectfully advise you that the State will take
whatever steps are necessary to prevent the opening of the proposed
casino, and if the Tribe persists in these efforts it does so at its own
risk,” the letter reads, according to the Free Press.

A spokesman for the project told the Free Press the opposition was expected, and would not stop the casino from moving forward.
